Chapter 24 Things Got Out of Hand [Seeking Follow-up Reading Recommendation]
"Drip drip..."
The next day at noon, Di Qing was sleeping soundly when he was awakened by a shrill cell phone ring.
When I picked it up, I saw that it was Feilong who shot it.
"Hello? Brother Feilong, why are you here so early?" Di Qing said in a daze.
"It's still early, the sun is already shining on my butt!"
Feilong said on the other end of the phone: "Hurry up and come to the company. I told Brother Kun about what happened last night. Brother Kun said we can talk about it when you come over."
"Got it, come right over!"
Di Qing hung up the phone, then stood up, yawned, checked the time, and couldn't help complaining, "I thought life would be easier in the underworld, but I didn't expect it to be busier than the police. Every day is like going to work."
I was busy until six or seven in the morning before coming back to sleep, and it’s not even twelve o’clock yet and I have to go to the company. Even the donkeys in the production team don’t work so hard!
But despite saying this, Di Qing still got up and got dressed.
After getting dressed and walking out of the bedroom, I saw Qiu Di and Zhang Meirun were already up. Qiu Di was busy in the kitchen, while Zhang Meirun was sitting on the sofa with her legs crossed, watching TV.
Seeing Di Qing leaving, Zhang Meirun quickly stood up and asked, "Brother Qing, you're up so early?"
"Well, there's something going on at the company, so I have to go over there."
Di Qing touched her head, looked towards the kitchen, and asked, "Is Qiu Di cooking?"
Zhang Meirun nodded, and then said a little embarrassedly: "I came here to help, but I can't do anything well. Sister Qiu Di thought I was causing trouble and asked me to leave."
"If you don't want to cook, just have it delivered or go out to eat."
Di Qing smiled and didn't say anything to her. Nowadays, there are many girls who can't cook.
At this time, Qiu Di also came out, wearing an apron. She was stunned for a moment when she saw Di Qing getting up, then she smiled and said, "Brother Qing, the meal is ready. Let's eat first before we leave."
"Well, there's no rush. I just want to try your cooking skills."
Di Qing didn't want to waste her efforts, so he turned around and went to wash up.
Qiu Di smiled even more happily when he saw this, and shouted to Zhang Meirun: "Arun, come and help me."
"I'm here, Sister Qiu Di!" Zhang Meirun hurried into the kitchen.
Soon, Di Qing came out after washing up, and Qiu Di and Zhang Meirun had brought the food to the table in the living room and were waiting.
Di Qing was not polite. He sat down, picked up his chopsticks and took a bite. Suddenly his eyes lit up and he nodded, "Well, not bad!"
Qiu Di immediately breathed a sigh of relief and quickly said, "That's good. If it tastes good, eat more. Arun, you eat too!"
"Well, thank you, Sister Qiu Di."
The three of them ate lunch happily.
Morning tea is popular in Hong Kong Island, but Di Qing has been getting up late these days and basically has two meals a day, sometimes even only one. It is rare for the three of them to have a good meal together, so Qiu Di and Zhang Meirun are very happy.
While eating, Di Qing asked casually, "By the way, is there any news today about what happened last night?"
Qiu Di shook his head.
Zhang Meirun also said: "Not yet, Brother Qing. I just got up and turned on the TV, but there has been no news about the police... Ah, there is!"
At this time, Zhang Meirun's eyes lit up and she quickly pointed at the TV.
Di Qing also turned his head and saw a police news report on TV:
"At around 23: this morning, based on a tip-off, the police found the perpetrators of the Temple Street bombing at Lai On Street in Sha Tin District."
"There were 13 criminals in total. After the police arrived at the place where the criminals were hiding, they engaged in a fierce fight with them."
"Under the leadership of Chief Inspector Lu Qichang of the West Kowloon Crime Unit, the police eventually succeeded in killing four gangsters, including the gang leader Li Ming, and arrested the remaining nine gangsters. After interrogation by the police, the nine gangsters confessed to the crime."
"This case is suspected to be caused by a fight between a triad organization called 'Zhongqing Society' and other gangs. The police are currently investigating the details..."
Looking at the news on TV, Di Qing nodded with satisfaction.
If nothing unexpected happens, the gang leader Li Ming should be the leader of Zhongqing Society.
Now Li Ming is dead, this should be the best outcome.
Not only did he help Tang Twelve get his revenge, he didn't have to do it himself. The most important thing was that he got in touch with the serious crime squad.
It can be said that it kills three birds with one stone.
As for offending Zhongqing Society, it doesn’t matter now.
As long as the benefits are great, it's just a second-rate society. If it's offended, it's no big deal.
"Now that the risk is over, it should be time for a good harvest..."
Thinking of Liang Kun, Di Qing couldn't help but feel a little excited and hurriedly quickened his eating pace.
Unexpectedly, at this moment, another phone rang.
As an undercover agent, Di Qing also has two phones, one for normal use and the other for contacting his boss Gao Zongyang. So far, apart from his boss Gao Zongyang, only one person knows the number of his phone - Ma Jun from the serious crime team.
Di Qing picked it up and saw that it was indeed the cavalry that attacked.
Without avoiding the two girls of Qiudi, Di Qing answered the phone directly and said with a smile: "Hello, Sir Ma, congratulations."
On the other end of the phone, Ma Jun was stunned for a moment, then he smiled and said, "Thank you this time."
"It's nothing. Since we are good friends, we must help each other." Di Qing hinted.
Ma Jun naturally understood Di Qing's other meaning, and said, "I have told Sir Lu about your matter, and Sir Lu agreed. Also, if you need any help in the future, you can also contact our serious crime team, and we will definitely help you if we can."
Di Qing immediately smiled: "Okay, thank you very much."
"Well, let's contact each other when we have time."
After hanging up the phone, Di Qing lowered his head and continued to eat.
Qiu Di said softly, "Brother Qing, there won't be any trouble from what happened last night, right?"
Di Qing shook his head and said, "Don't worry, nothing will happen."
However, as if he had thought of something, he still reminded: "But you should try to be careful during this period. If there is anything wrong, call me immediately. I am worried that the people from Zhongqing Society will not dare to retaliate against me and come after you."
"Okay, I understand, Brother Qing." The two girls nodded obediently.
Di Qing nodded slightly, then quickly finished his meal, wiped his mouth, and stood up and said, "I'm leaving first. You don't have to wait for me to eat tonight. Go ahead and do whatever you want."
After saying that, he put on his coat, picked up his phone and went out.
……
Soon, Di Qing took a taxi to Liang Kun's film company.
As soon as he went up to the second floor, Di Qing found that the atmosphere today seemed a little wrong.
I saw Liang Kun sitting on the sofa with a serious face, while Tang Bao, Feilong and others stood beside him obediently, and even Tang Twelve came.
Seeing Di Qing coming, Tang Twelve was the first to rush forward and then knelt down.
"Brother Qing! Thank you for avenging me. From now on, my life, Tang Twelve, will be yours!"
Di Qing was stunned for a moment, then quickly helped him up: "What are you doing? Get up first and we'll talk."
Tang Twelve said gratefully: "Brother Qing, I said before, as long as you help me get revenge, I will do anything you ask me to do!"
Di Qing said helplessly: "I can't accomplish this by myself. Forget it, let's talk about it later."
After saying that, he walked straight to Liang Kun and said, "Brother Kun, what happened? Why is there such a big scene?"
Liang Kun said unhappily, "Bad boy, you were quite powerful last night. You beat up Ding Yixie from Zhongqing Society, extorted two million from him, and then used the help of Tiao to kill more than a dozen of his men. But have you ever thought about the consequences of doing this?"
Di Qing smiled and said, "Brother Kun, didn't you ask me to take care of it?"
The corner of Liang Kun's mouth twitched: "I told you to handle it, but I didn't ask you to make such a big fuss. Didn't I tell you not to get into trouble?"
"Now, the Zhongqing Society wants us to hand over someone from Hongxing. What do you want me to do?"
Di Qing said indifferently: "It depends on you, Brother Kun. You are my boss, I will do whatever you tell me to do."
Seeing his carefree look, Liang Kun couldn't help but feel a headache. This little brother is capable, but he is too prone to trouble.
Sighing helplessly, Liang Kun turned around and looked at Tang Bao, Fei Long and the others, and said, "You are right, this loser really doesn't know what fear is."
Everyone laughed when they heard this.
The atmosphere immediately eased.
Feilong laughed and said, "Brother Kun, with Qingzi's courage, he might not be afraid if you let him be the police chief. How can a mere Zhongqing Society scare him?"
Ah Bao also nodded and said, "Yes, if he was afraid, he wouldn't have dared to deal with Ding Yixie last night and even extorted two million from him!"
"You lost, Brother Kun. You should accept the defeat. The rich man is yours tonight."
Di Qing also reacted at this moment, and stepped forward and said, "Wow, you guys are teaming up to make fun of me?"
Feilong laughed and said, "It was Brother Kun who insisted on scaring you. It has nothing to do with us."
Di Qing immediately looked at Liang Kun and said unhappily, "Brother Kun, you are going too far. It doesn't matter if you scare me, but I don't even have a chance to go to the Rich Man?"
Liang Kun said with a smile: "Who told you to be so troublesome? Just for fun, who said I won't take you with me? I'll arrange two girls for you tonight."
Di Qing snorted, "How can two be enough? I need twenty!"
"Wow, twenty? Can you handle that?"
"You must be joking. Ten more won't be a problem!"
Liang Kun waved his hand and said, "Okay, as long as you can afford it, I'll buy you 200 of them!"
